I often have dreams that are very scary and real. There seems to be an evil presence in the room and I will sense evil around me. I am unable to move or respond. Often, I will sense someone next to me; I can actually feel their breath on my ear. Often they are speaking in some unknown evil language and it totally freaks me out as I am paralyzed, cannot move or speak. I feel as if they are trying to possess or harm me. I eventually became able to stop the dreams or whatever they are pretty quickly by saying in my mind "I believe in Jesus Christ" Jesus Christ is triumphant over evil and other similar things. Am I crazy or is this a sleep disorder? Anyone else with similar experiences?

I don't have these kinds of dreams or feelings that you are experiencing but I do have where I can't move. The reason for me is because I am in such a deep sleep it takes me a while to really wake up and then when I do I can move again. I do have some bad dreams now and then but they usually leave me pretty quickly after I wake up totally. But sometimes I remember them too vividly and then they will stay with me all day. I don't like having these kinds of dreams because they sometimes make me very sad and depressed or sometimes even scared. Most of my bad dreams are about things that happened to me when I was young, I had a very abusive alchoholic father, but he is no longer in this world with us. So I just try my best to shake it off.

I know exactly what you mean, I go throught the exact dilema almost every night. Have you found any remedies?

The remedy I have found is saying over and over in my head "I believe in Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ will triumph over evil" May sound strange, but it works every time. That is what makes me think it really is an evil presence.
